    He had arrived in Buenos Aires early last week for an international law conference. Started feeling ill. Got worse. By the time he was hospitalized or shortly after, he developed acute septicemia. His death was announced yesterday.

    Aside from being in charge of the prosecution of Catalan politicians who lead the unilateral declaration of independence, he was also in charge of serious investigations of corruption (Gurtel case) involving some figures of the governing party (PP). Some of the people involved in this have turned up dead in recent months.
